title: [Late solitary and benign neurilemmoma of the pterygo-maxillary region].
abstract: The neurilemmoma of the pterygoid fossa are very rare. The authors reports one case of a 32 years old man, with such a neoplasm, exteriorized on the lateral facial region (area of the glandula parotis) clinical and radiological data could not differentiate benign neurilemmoma or slow evolutive sarcoma and have justified a conservative latero facial approach of the neoplasm. The final diagnosis of ancient neurilemmoma was based on both light and electron microscopy morphology.
